No big changes—but does that hide the biggest shifts?
Budget 2026 surprised few with bold moves, yet its quiet continuity may reshape how India's investors and taxpayers think about stability. In this episode of The Morning Brief, host Kayezad E Adajania, editor, ET Wealth, speaks to Homi Mistry, Partner, Deloitte India, and Aashish P. Somaiyaa, ED & CEO, WhiteOak Capital Asset Management, to unpack what an unchanged tax landscape truly signals.
The discussion navigates the old versus new tax regime's evolving future, untouched capital gains structures and their impact on India's global competitiveness, and a new amnesty scheme encouraging disclosure of undeclared foreign assets. From a strategic pivot toward semiconductors, AI, and data centers to revised sovereign gold bond rules and rising STT concerns, the episode examines whether Budget 2026's stability is genuinely reassuring—or simply a pause before inevitable change as India braces for an uncertain global economic landscape.
